Operator knows how to get a bucket load. Also smooth

The bucket on those backhoes never look as big as they really are, but two passed to fill one of those artic trucks tells the true story. Pretty cool little video.

The hoe operator must be super easy because I've never seen a Komatsu anything go that slow and smooth unless you wanted it to be that way and were able to pull it off. Thanks and God Bless Yall!

Thanks PA MINING for another high quality video. This class of track hoe has always been my favorite. Machines of this size can work on very large construction projects and also fit right in at the mining site. They can dig deep, and still handle a substantial bucket size. Also this class of excavator is relatively easy to transport from job to job. I remember back in the day seeing machines such as the Koehring 1266d doing some very impressive mass excavation. Made a huge impression on me to witness a machine sporting an 8 cubic yard bucket digging at just shy of 40 feet deep. Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to see a Koehring 1466. In backhoe configuration the 1466 was about 32,000 lbs. heavier than the 1266d. Thanks again, and take care.

@PAmining10 ай бұрын
How so?
@triple743310 ай бұрын
There’s a few differences such as the right side of the machine looks more like the PC1100 (the -8 looks more beefed up) The decals are square and looks different, the "air vents" over the doors to the pumps are also square and not rounded and thats just a few of the differences. My favorite machine is the 1250 and i’ve run both the -7 and -8 😅 Sorry for my poor english im from Sweden😅@@PAmining

Is there a reason why he is not filling the truck any more than that ?
@elliotkane444310 ай бұрын
He could probably get 1/4 or 1/2 a bucket more in that, overloading trucks causes damage over time.
@qatommy10 ай бұрын
It could be a density issue, if the clay is very dense then less volume would equal the same weight
@PAmining10 ай бұрын
Heres the logical reason. A third bucket would be spilling over the side boards of the truck, which means you need a loader/dozer around to clean up the roads from all the spillage. Now the operator could throw a half bucket on but when you look at that from a cost perspective, to only grab half a bucket and cycle is a waste of fuel and inefficient. Thanks!
@evadvalcourt10 ай бұрын
@@PAmining I get that. But at the end of the day if he’s doing let’s say 200 loads a day. You have to load 30 more trucks to make up for the 1/2 bucket you did not put in those trucks.
@PAmining10 ай бұрын
But if you're calculating for those two passes per truck load and the total number of loads per day it's meeting your production expectations, what does it matter.

@PAmining10 ай бұрын
Here in PA we call them "Berms", never heard of a bund before lol. But I see what your talking about and do agree with you. However, in my opinion, if you can't back that truck up under that bucket, you have no business driving it.
